To all whom lit mag/concern Be it known that I, ALEXANDER M. DYE,

Figure l is a side elevation of my improved belt. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional elevation taken on the lille a' of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section.

The disks A have an eye, D, going through the plates B and felt band C, and secured by The plates B are also clinched over through the protecting-band Fat H, so as to buckle the (lislcband, whereby a better tension isobtained for it than it' fastened by the other, and it also makes a simple connection of the one to the other.

The loop ot' the disk-band for the buckle is secured by the ribbon'Gr.

1. The plates secured to the band c by clinching them over the edges of the band, in addition to the bottom fastening, substantially as specified.

2. The magnet, connected by a'copper Wire arranged in the eyes ot' the button and along the back ot the l'clt band, substantially as specified.

3. The felt band inA combination with the plates, substantially as specified.

4. The plate-band c, extended through the protecting-band F, in the manner described, for buckling together.
